You could try adjusting! I believe it depends on how much the hood has bent! If its off by too much then I don't think readjusting will fix it! Just try arking the hood bit by bit at the side it seems to be lower! Much easier than trying to adjust it, just don't overdoit! Do it with the hood on the car! Dont remove anything. Just open the hood, bend it and close it to see where it sits right!
